The topic I am considering using for my research paper is cyber crime. Cyber or computer crime is any crime that involves a computer and a network. They include anything from downloading illegal music files to stealing millions of dollars from online bank accounts. There is also net crime which refers precisely to crimes on the internet. Those crimes usually consist of hacking, copyright infringement, child pornography, and child grooming. There are also problems with privacy when confidential info is lost. Cyber crime has a large range of potentially illegal activities.
There is also spam, which is sending email in bulk for commercial purposes, it is unlawful. Computer fraud is any false fact intended to cause a loss from someone. A few other cyber crimes include offensive content, harassment, drug trafficking, cyber warfare, and cyber terrorism, but there are many more different kinds of cyber crime. Now that we are highly using technology, cyber crimes are on the rise and the FBI is doing what they can to prevent and protect people from being attacked by one.
I would like to find out how many people commit cyber crimes and what charges they could face for doing them.
